My DD is nearly 15 and always putting herself down, she is taking mocks at the mo and constantly says she will fail or won't do well , she is very bright and gets As and Bs in all but one subject. I can honestly say we have always given her praise and encouragement for everything she does with no pressure, we have never told her she is stupid, no good or to try harder. Is this just a normal teenage thing? Any similar experiences.
